I'm half arsesedly in the market for buying at the moment (please refrain from crash crash crash posts, I won't go into detail but I was on here in 2004 before my 2007 re-reg and if I'd have lied like some in 2002 would be part of the HPI crowd no doubt, but hey ho). Anyway I'm due to view a property and have been told that if (we) make an offer then it will stay on the market for further viewings (TBF to the EA they do state that this is something that they don't no under normal circumstances if an offer is accepted and has been proved to me when I tried to book a viewing that had listed and 'sold SSTC' in the same day or 2). So just wondered if anyone else had any experience of this? Have been viewing for roughly a year now (prices static/marginal 2-3% decreases around here) so I'm not in any rush, I assume I'd be well within my rights to say to EA that if I do make an offer and later find a place that I think is better value then I'll pull out of the contract leaving the seller ga******ed or whatever the crappy terminology is and also be able to say to the same EA that I'd do that exact scenario even if the better value listing was with them? Mods - please move to buying and selling after a few days cheers.
